Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Over a dozen figures descended from the air, arriving in the Sealed Land.

The Power of Destiny appeared in time, generating white threads that connected to each of these individuals, intertwining their fates completely.

Eventually, the dozen figures landed at the same spot within the Sealed Land.

"Where is the Gold Spirit God?"

Among the dozen, the Wood Spirit God took the lead. He was the first to land in the Sealed Land and immediately asked about the whereabouts of the Gold Spirit God upon arrival.

A regular disciple who grasped the situation promptly stepped forward and spoke, "Reporting to Wood Respected Envoy, as I entered the passage, I happened to see Lv Liangping from the Human World launch a sudden attack and try to enter the Sealed Land. The Gold Spirit God fought him, got delayed, and ultimately did not make it into the Sealed Land."

"The Gold Spirit God didn't enter the Sealed Land?"

The Wood Spirit God's expression shifted subtly. He couldn't help but glance at the other three Divine Spirits.

The Gold Spirit God was their leader—his absence meant the group was without a head. How could they proceed without clear command?

While the Earth Spirit God and Water Spirit God looked uneasy, the Fire Spirit God displayed his trademark hot temper, exclaiming explosively, "So what if he didn't enter? Do we really need the Gold Spirit God's leadership just to handle someone as insignificant as Xiao Mu? Aren't we enough on our own?"

"Hmph, that Xiao Mu. Let me encounter him—if I do, I'll obliterate him on the spot."

Hearing these words, the Wood Spirit God, Earth Spirit God, and Water Spirit God exchanged amused glances.

Indeed, there was little reason to fret. Xiao Mu was hardly a major threat. The Human World's strength within the Sealed Land was weak. Even without the Gold Spirit God, their combined forces were more than ample to seize control.

"In that case, I shall take charge from here on. Does anyone have objections?"

The Wood Spirit God smiled and casually glanced at the other three Divine Spirits.

The Fire Spirit God gave a cold snort, while both the Earth Spirit God and Water Spirit God nodded their assent.

The Wood Spirit God smiled again, saying, "Since there are no objections, I will lead us henceforth. Allow me to arrange our next course of action."

"Reporting to Wood Spirit God!"

The same disciple who had spoken earlier now stepped forward again. "I have additional information to share."

"Speak!" The Wood Spirit God's speech was curt.

The disciple elaborated, "When I descended, not only did I see Lv Liangping battling the Gold Spirit God, but I also spotted two other Human World powerhouses, Qin Zhong and Liu Tong. During the conflict, these two seized the opportunity to descend into the Sealed Land. As of now, they should already be somewhere within."

"Qin Zhong and Liu Tong?"

The Wood Spirit God furrowed his brows slightly. "These two are no trifling foes; they are in the True God Realm just like us and should not be underestimated."

"If both of them have entered the Sealed Land, their immediate priority will surely be contacting Xiao Mu."

"In dealing with Xiao Mu, we must take these two into account."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Being meticulous like her sister Bai Su'e, the Water Spirit God suddenly proposed, "Wood Spirit God, previously Qin Zhong used the Five Elements Heaven Pointing Needle to locate Xiao Mu. Why not contact him and borrow the needle to determine Xiao Mu's whereabouts?"

"The Water Spirit God speaks wisely!"

The Wood Spirit God was elated. "I will utilize the Power of Destiny to connect with Luo Zhan and request Qin Zhong for the Five Elements Heaven Pointing Needle to pinpoint Xiao Mu's position."

"At that point, the four of us in the True God Realm can use Fate Talismans to mask our presence and stealthily approach Xiao Mu for an ambush."

The Earth Spirit God smiled. "No matter how powerful Xiao Mu is, he won't be able to withstand a coordinated assault from the four of us. Once he's eliminated, Qin Zhong and Liu Tong will pose no further threats. The Sealed Land will fully fall into our hands."

※※※

Whoosh, whoosh—two figures materialized in mid-air above the Sealed Land.

But the moment these two figures appeared, they simultaneously cast a golden Dao Talisman each.

The two golden Dao Talismans unleashed Golden Light, connecting to each other and pulling the two figures rapidly closer together.

Eventually, the two figures landed steadily, ending up in the same location.

"Good, we didn't get separated. Old Qin, what do you think we should do?" Liu Tong, dressed in a green robe and appearing to be in his thirties, turned to Qin Zhong.

"Hold on—let me use the Divine Listening Technique to hear what's happening."

Qin Zhong paused to focus, his oddly-shaped left ear enlarging rapidly until it transformed into a giant horn-like structure.

After about ten minutes, Qin Zhong withdrew his Divine Power, a slight frown on his face.

"Well? Did you hear anything?"

Liu Tong pressed urgently, uneasy at the hint of dissatisfaction in Qin Zhong's expression.

Qin Zhong shook his head. "My Divine Listening Technique has a range of just five hundred kilometers. I listened just now and heard nothing from the Five Elements Sect. They must be too far away from us."

"Should we search for the Five Elements Sect's movements? Get closer and then listen?" Liu Tong suggested tentatively.

Qin Zhong responded, "No, let's contact Xiao Mu first. He entered earlier than us and is more familiar with the terrain. We can gather some information from him first."

"Besides, the four Divine Spirits descending into the Sealed Land will prioritize dealing with Xiao Mu."

"After all, the moment they kill Xiao Mu, they'll have absolute dominance within the Sealed Land, free to act as they please."

"True enough."

Liu Tong nodded, completely agreeing that the Divine Spirits' primary objective would indeed be Xiao Mu.

Their ultimate goal may not be Xiao Mu himself but rather releasing the Five Elements Ancestor and seizing the Creation Treasure.

Under Xiao Mu's shadow of threat, whether or not they can achieve these two goals remains uncertain.
